Take inventory of expensive and impractical equipment on trucks
In recent years, the competition in the domestic truck market has become increasingly fierce. In order to attract the eyes of consumers, many car companies have played a competition with passenger cars in configuration and taken a high-configuration route, such as large horsepower, wide sleeper, high-definition screen, luxury seats, automatic transmission, on-board refrigerator, etc., which is so lively. Of course, the price of trailer axle is also rising.
According to the reason, the configuration has improved is a good thing, especially for those who run long-distance transportation owners, eat and live often in the car, the higher the configuration of the vehicle, the higher its safety and driving comfort.
However, in the words of the owners, "the car does not drive", although the high version of the truck has updated a lot of large and small functions, many of them are not very practical, and there are even many configurations that are not used several times from buying a car to selling a car.
Today, we take a look at the high-end features of the DAROtrailer axle vehicles that drivers generally find useless.
1, one-click start
One-click start is almost the standard configuration of passenger cars, generally used with keyless entry system, since the application of this technology, owners no longer need to pick the key on the car, it is convenient for a lot of users, but also changed the habits of many users. As a result, some car companies have moved these technologies to commercial vehicles.
In the beginning, the one-button start function of commercial vehicles was not installed with the keyless entry system, which led to the need for the owner to pull out the key when getting on the car to unlock, put the key, get on the car, and then press a key to start. Compared with the traditional mechanical key, it is to save the process of inserting a key, and it does not feel much convenient.
In addition, there is a problem in this case: if the owner gets off with the key in the case of the vehicle without turning off, once the key is accidentally left outside the car, the owner does not affect the continuation of driving after returning to the car, and so on when the key is lost, it is more troublesome to find.
Later, some high-end models combined the one-button start with the keyless entry system, which is more convenient to use. But many owners feedback, this technology is not so popular. Why is that? Because used to get into the car without a key, it is easy to forget to take the key. Besides, when the owners of the car are out of the car, they often need to take a lot of things, such as clothes, food, qualifications, waybills, etc., and forget to take the key is more common, and generally remember that they do not have the key when they go to the car. Unlike the traditional mechanical key, open the door, insert the key, start the fire, leave, in one go, it is not easy to forget to take the key.
According to the staff of the vehicle service station, some vehicle users equipped with one-button start and keyless entry functions often go to the service station with a new key because they lose or forget the key, but this key has a chip that is consistent with the vehicle remote control signal, so the price is often more expensive, and a single key can reach more than 1000 yuan, which is much more expensive than the traditional mechanical key.
2, headlight cleaning device
Headlight cleaning device is not an emerging technology, has been out for decades now, but the phenomenon is still more embarrassing.
The adoption rate of headlight cleaning devices on trucks in Europe is relatively high, because the installation of headlight cleaning devices in Europe is a mandatory regulatory requirement. From the beginning of mechanical cleaning, to the present high pressure jet cleaning, it has also experienced the update iteration of technology.
It has to be said that after the installation of the high-pressure jet cleaning device, the appearance is still very tall. According to the feedback of the owners, the clear effect depends on the distance between the nozzle and the lens, the size of the water droplets, the contact Angle, the water spraying speed and the amount of water. Some fine dust can not be used to clean the device, and some clumped mud or shellac can not be cleaned.
Besides, it is not very easy to find a muddy road when running transportation, and more importantly, this set of devices is too expensive, and it is better to use a water pipe to wash it when parking.
3, car super large screen
This is also a common car owners proposed a less practical device. At present, many models have begun to launch large-size car screens, but many owners feedback, whether it is navigation, entertainment, leisure or looking for supplies, the attendance rate of the car's large screen is not as good as the owner's mobile phone APP, the owner from the sports car to the order, a mobile phone can be completely done, leisure time can also see a short video or information. Even the most frequently used navigation rarely uses the on-board screen for navigation, because on-board systems rarely update in real time over the network. Unless it is a large screen with mobile Internet, navigation, APP, 360 panoramic image and other functions.
Therefore, owners said that instead of installing a large screen, it is better to replace a set of four-way monitoring equipment or car tachograph.
4. Cab skylight
Let's talk about the skylight this device, although many models are equipped with a skylight, and also support the button to open, but for many owners, the skylight has no practical role, and even some owners go directly to the modification factory after the car will take off the skylight for a parking air conditioning.
5. Speech recognition system
The principle of the voice control system is well understood, that is, the driver's voice command is received through the microphone set in the vehicle, and the vehicle ECU is transmitted to achieve the opening or closing of a certain function.
Sounds like a bit of artificial intelligence, but in the actual use of the voice system's recognition ability and response efficiency is really worrying, even if the owner of the standard Mandarin loudly issued instructions, the system still goes its own way to tell you that it "can't hear clearly", or mishear misjudgment, or simply do not understand the dialect, like a joke, so that the owner can not laugh.
In addition to the above, what configurations do you think are not practical? You can leave a comment in the comments section. In fact, for the owners, the vehicle as long as affordable, economic, safe, reliable is enough, do not need to be too fancy, and these configurations are not free, the original price is not cheap, owners do not use much, it is better to directly change to a more practical, safer configuration.
